Two Women by Cambodian Carvings in a Gallery

A photorealistic scene inside a contemporary art gallery: white walls, polished concrete floor, warm spotlights. In the foreground, a simple wooden bench holds two women seated side by side, engaged in quiet conversation as they gaze at ancient Cambodian stone carvings mounted along the wall behind them. The carvings are bas-reliefs featuring devatas, naga serpents, and ornate lintels reminiscent of Angkorian temple art, with weathered stone textures, mossy patinas, and subtle shadows. One woman wears a light blouse and jeans; the other wears a patterned dress with a scarf. Soft warm light washes over the stone and faces, creating a calm, reverent mood. In the background, other artworks and display cases fade softly, with a shallow depth of field that keeps the focus on the bench and the carvings. The palette blends cool grays of the stone with golden amber from gallery lighting, and the scene exudes quiet exploration and cultural heritage.
